Halloween night, 10:46 pm

Matt's POV:

I woke up in a dark ally way where my neck stung like sharp knives. I stood up weakly, stumbling with every step forward. My memory is blurry, as I try to recall what happened. I rub my neck with my hand, feeling bite marks.
"Ow! What was his problem..? Oh god...I'm a vampire!"

....

"Om nam nom nom"

Two Hours Later~

It was now midnight, I returned to my house, shaken by what happened. My body feels so empty, so hungry..for blood...
I slap myself.
"No! Keep yourself together, Matt!" I say to myself, as I rub my face.
"And..sorry, Matt."
I reach out for the door knob and turn it slowly and quietly, entering the house, and shutting it quietly behind me. I take careful steps forward, trying not to wake anybody up, or see me. As I walk towards my room, I hear approching footsteps. I turn around quickly as I hear Edd call my name.
"Matt, back from trick or treating?"
I try to keep quiet, as I sense Edd's eyes scan my body.
"I thought you were a rabbit this year?" Edd says confused. I stay quiet, and glance at his neck. My mouth waters at the new found hunger for blood, and that Edd can provide...
"Are you okay, Matt?" Edd asks, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Y-Yeah, just really tired is all."
I start to turn the door knob to my room and glance behind me, Edd seems to look worried about something, I guess he can tell I'm lying..
"I'm fine, Edd." I assure him. Edd nods to me and walks to his room.
"Goodnight." He calls out to me.

I quickly shut the door behind me and look around for my hand mirror. As I glance around, it was resting on my bed stand.
I grab it and take a deep breath before flipping it towards me.

CRASH!

my hands shake, I look at the ground, which was covered in glass now. I...I...
"I CAN'T SEE MYSELF ANYMORE!" I cry out loud, and collapse onto the ground weeping dramatically.
Then, I hear approaching footsteps getting louder, and louder as they get closer. Edd then swings open the door, worry clouded his eyes.
Edd looks down at me, as I lay still on the floor, looking up at him.
"What happened?" Edd asked concerned, already picking up the broom that was beside my door.
"I-I dropped it.." I say, staying still. Edd sweeps up the glass, and walks away to throw it away, then comes back.
"Are you okay, Matt?" Edd asks me, looking at me confused.
I look down at the ground, awkward silence filled the room
Edd takes a seat next to me, and looks are me worryingly.
"What was that you said, before dropping it?" Edd asks.
I swallow.
Scared of Edd's judgement, I hesitantly stay silent for a few more seconds.
"I..I said I can't see myself anymore.." I mumble.
I turn away from Edd's direction in embarrassment, but I can still feel his eyes looking at me.
"What do you mean..?" Edd asks.
I stay silent for a few more seconds, hunger suddenly hit my body like a brick. My mouth waters, just by Edd's presence. I imagine taking his blood from him, feasting on the rich matalic flavor.
"You were a rabbit this year, wernt you?" Edd asks, his tone suggests he knows what happened before I could tell him.
I nod my head, trying to block all the hunger for blood out.
Edd sighs, then stands up, and holds out his hand towards me.
"Well get up, maybe I can help you." Edd says in a tone that makes me have hope.
I grab his warm, soft, hand, and pull myself up.

I walk out of my room with Edd to the computer for some research, I can sense everything about Edd. I could smell his cola stained hoodie, his natural sent, I could even feel his body temperature from where I was. I was staring at his neck the entire time, my mouth drooling.
"Okay." Edd says, sitting down on the computer chair. He typed out some words before pressing enter, and his eyes scanned the page. I was still standing, glaring at his neck, my thoughts ran wild.
